Economic Ramifications of Skyrocketing Long-Term Unemployment

try being out of work for 3 years, Dec 2001 to Nov 2004 with the caveat of getting a temp job or a permanent job within an hour's drive of my current location, and a job matching my existing skill set. . .

this time, I wouldn't get a job with my existing skill set, which is finance and financial forecasting systems, being over 50. . .

since the US outsourced its mfg to china, its only fair that China buy the huge treasury demand to subsidize its customers and its customer's health care program. China should want its customer base to survive, correct? . . . only when mfg wages fall to the equivalent to China + shipping will the work return to the US. . . and that's a long way down.
